Mike and others, If you find one you like and can’t figure out the materials from enlarging the photo, tell me which fly you are looking at and I will post the recipe. Then you can change colors to whatever you like.
The important thing is to try to rope dub a new material, even if it is a cactus chenille or old chenille with new flash component. Or you can submit a design with sets of different colors. No rules, just fun and experimentation. I really like the looks of a spey feather (1 or more) roped in with dubbing or a chenille. Really adds life to the design. Black bugger- row 1 fly 1. That would be a great steel-head fly in bright colors. I might do a few versions of that one for my swap-fly.

Sorry for the delay, home staging and visiting is a real routine-buster. These are samples showing how rope-dubbing can be used with different kinds of body materials, hackles, synthetics, furs, etc. to achieve different looks for different fishing. Pick one, zoom in, and see if you can re-create what I did as a rope-dub method. A lot of styles are represented, so you may want to try something new for your box. Ask for materials if you can’t identify them. <P1010004B[2].jpg> <P1010006B[2].jpg> Hang on to your flies for a while before you send, as we just got an offer on the house and should contract this week. Don’t know when we’ll actually move, so won’t know the address to send them to for a bit. Latest closing date will be Jan 8th. Will post my new address when we are ready. <-164674920514A3DCE2.png> Rope-dub bugger-swap samples VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL This album has 2 photos and will be available on OneDrive until 1/12/2018. <9611746251BC3195A.png> DonO Virus-free. www.avg.com -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
